Chapter 44

Those children watched her eat their own flesh, endured the pain in their bodies, and all of them dared not speak out.

With the temptation of a big pot of meat, this time Nanny Li dismissed the group of children without cursing for a long time, and after cursing and letting them go, she started eating again.

How could Dahe and the others be reconciled after they came out, but there was nothing they could do, they could only walk forward with their heads down, unexpectedly they met Jin Meiyu.

Jin Meiyu saw that there were marks on Xiao Heiwa's face, and she was furious.

"Who did it!"

It may be that what Jin Meiyu did during this period of time has established the prestige of the elders in front of them. They who originally only felt sorry for those fleshy people suddenly felt a sore nose and felt grievances in their hearts.

Dahe took a deep breath, pointed his hand behind him, and opened his mouth immediately.

"It's Nanny Li. She robbed us of our meat, and often beat and scolded us."

Jin Meiyu didn't know Nanny Li, but it didn't prevent her from guessing Nanny Li's identity.

"She beats you often? Why does she beat you and scold you?"

After asking, Jin Meiyu didn't need these children to answer, she turned around angrily and walked back.

"Keep up! It's against her!"

The children didn't know what Jin Meiyu wanted to do, but they followed up obediently, and they had some expectations in their hearts.
Jin Meiyu rushed to the village chief's house angrily. As it was approaching, the children knew her plan.

"It's useless, the village station management doesn't care about it."

Jin Meiyu stopped and turned her head, looking at Dahe.

"Why doesn't he care?"

Da He's eyes were red and he was silent for a while, but he still spoke.

"Maybe the village head also thinks that our fate is hard, and that we should be severely 'disciplined' if we kill our relatives and friends, so that we can wash away our sins."

Dahe spoke calmly, but Jin Meiyu took a deep breath, and the anger in her heart was on a higher level.

She didn't believe it, the village head really didn't care about it!
Jin Meiyu didn't say anything, turned around and continued to walk towards the village chief's house. Before reaching the village chief's house, Jin Meiyu met the village chief on the way.

The old village head was leaning on a cane and holding a pipe, as if he wanted to sit down and rest. When he raised his eyes, he saw Jin Meiyu approaching aggressively, with a group of children behind him. His eyelids drooped, and he didn't intend to leave her.

Is it because he doesn't want to talk to Jin Meiyu, so he can't talk to him?
Jin Meiyu rushed directly to the old village head, pointed at the children behind her, and asked directly.

"You don't care!"

The old village chief looked up at the group of children, his expression indifferent.

"What do I care? There are mothers in the ancestral hall, so what do I care about?"

Jin Meiyu really did not expect that the old village head would say such a thing.

"Okay, you don't care, right? Cheng, since you don't care, then I'm going to tell my dad and let him beat someone!"

The old village chief paused while fiddling with the pipe, thought about Jin Liangshun's temper for his daughter, and thought that he might really beat someone, which is not good.

"What's the trouble? The mothers and mothers in the ancestral temple are all poor people. You are messing around!"

"What the hell am I doing, she snatched my meat bowl, it's full of meat, I'll let my dad beat me lightly!"

"Meat?"

"Yes! Meat! I hired these children to cook meat for me. I'm going to make some dried meat for Xiao Liu. The rainy season is coming, and I want to prepare rations for Xiao Liu! But that man robbed me Meat, a big pot full of meat, since you don't care, just wait for my father to come back!"

If it was the children in the ancestral hall, the old village head might not care about them.

After all, which family has never beaten or scolded their children, and there are not a few people who are partial to each other. Isn't Jin Meiyu the one who was favored by the family?

Since the children were raised by those widows, these children belonged to those widows and were taught by them. He is an old village head, but he can't control others to discipline the children.

However, if this matter turned into a nunnery in the ancestral temple robbing Jin Meiyu's flesh, then the nature of the matter would become a conflict between the two families.

asked the old village chief.

"you sure?"

"I'm sure, she might still be eating right now!"

"Jin Meiyu, let me tell you that if you frame someone for nothing, even if your father comes back, you will still be punished."

Jin Meiyu nodded, and lies came out of her mouth.

"If the pot of meat wasn't mine, could it still belong to these children? Where can they get so much meat!"

Since Jin Meiyu confirmed that the meat belonged to her, and there was really a big pot of meat, he couldn't just leave this matter alone.

Standing up on crutches, the old village head planned to visit the ancestral temple, Jin Meiyu reminded.

"Old village chief, you'd better find some people, otherwise, if that nanny cheats and tears up, you can't count on me."

The old village chief ignored Jin Meiyu, he was more familiar with such things than her, and she didn't need to remind her at all.

Jin Meiyu waited for the old village chief to walk a dozen steps away before explaining to the children around him in a low voice.

"This matter must be nailed to death. The meat is mine. Let's find a way to get her away first, and try to avoid losses."

The children who heard the explanation nodded, and their eyes were all eager to try.

It's not good to be too far away. After finishing speaking, Jin Meiyu took the child and caught up with the old village head.

Although the old village head was leaning on a walking stick, in fact he was in good health and walked very fast. When he met an aunt sitting in the yard on the road, he directly called them to come with him.

After all, the nuns are widows, so it is definitely not suitable for young men to go to the house, so they can only invite the women at home to join them.

Being summoned, they were inevitably curious, and before they could ask, Jin Meiyu started talking.

"I hired these children from the ancestral hall to help me cook meat. I was going to stock up some dried meat that could be eaten directly for Xiao Liu to spend the rainy season, but I didn't want the nuns in the ancestral hall to beat and kick me. Meat, look at these children, they are all evidence that the man robbed me of meat!"

These aunts glanced at these children. The injuries on these children were very obvious, but their attention was not on these children.

"Did you cook the meat? Where did you get the meat?"

Jin Meiyu raised her small chin.

"Of course it's the meat from the mountain, and the rations from Xiao Liu."

After hearing this, the aunts were extremely envious. Of course, they felt that Jin Meiyu was a prodigal.

"It's a pity to give such good meat to animals."

"It's a pity. Give Xiaoliu meat. In the future, he will grow stronger. Today he can bring me meat. When he grows up in the future, he can bring me even bigger meat."

Ladies think about it, and think it makes sense.

"This wolf cub is indeed a wolf cub, a dog can't compare."

For those who are pragmatic, I added a sentence.

"We are helping you to get meat. If you want meat, you have to share some with us."

"You didn't come to help me. I went to complain to the village head. If he didn't care about me, he would ask my father to beat me up. The old village head wanted to save the robbers from beating me up. That's why I called you. What does it have to do with me."

The aunts are a little unhappy.

"It has nothing to do with you. We are all for you. Instead of making the meat cheaper for others, why not share it with us..."

"Why do I give you my things? Are you unable to live on? What's more, the purpose of my seeking the village chief is for the pot of meat. When I get the pot of meat back, I have to share it out. Then why should I bother?" What? Why don’t you tell daddy and brothers to beat her up three times a day.”

"Nonsense!" The old village chief couldn't listen to Jin Meiyu's words, and scolded, but Jin Meiyu didn't show any fear at all.

"What nonsense, it's reasonable to rob me. If you replace such a big pot of meat with other people in other villages, let alone a beating, it's not too much to beat once!"

These days, as long as someone who steals and robs is caught by the person concerned, he will be beaten lightly, and no one will care if he is beaten to death.

The old village chief snorted coldly, but didn't say any more rebuttal words.

However, the old village chief's dissatisfaction was almost overflowing. The old ladies were no better than Jin Meiyu, so they didn't dare to ask Jin Meiyu for meat.

When they arrived at the ancestral hall, the door was closed. The old village chief stretched out his hand and pushed it open, but the door was not locked.

When the door was opened, a faint smell of meat came out. The old village chief was fine, and the ladies who came with them were all sniffing and their eyes were full of light.

Smelling this smell, the old village head believed in Jin Meiyu [-]% of the time.

"Go grab that unlucky thing!"

The old village head stomped on his walking stick, and the other ladies rushed out.

It tastes like meat. Farmers seldom eat meat all year round. The smell of meat is so attractive!

As soon as they rushed in, there was a flutter of chickens and dogs, and there was a scream from inside, but they waited for a long time before those aunts pulled Mammy Li out, and the last person who came out was holding a basin in his hand. Yelling.

"Look, village chief, she ate all the meat!"

Nanny Li was pulled and unconvinced, and looked at these people viciously.

"You ate it! You rushed in to grab my meat! The village chief and the others grabbed my meat!"

There are some guilty consciences among the big ladies, but the one with the pot directly refuted it.

"Whoever snatched your meat, all of us saw it for real, it was you who ate the meat!"

Seeing that they were still arguing, the old village head stomped on his walking stick.

"Shut up! Be quiet!"

The old village head is still very prestigious. After he speaks, others dare not say anything.

Only at this time, Jin Meiyu stood up, pointed at the pot and said.

"It's the meat pot, those are my meat, she robbed my meat and ate it!"

Nanny Li knew Jin Meiyu, and when she saw that she said that she had robbed her, she didn't care about being afraid, and hurriedly complained.

"No, it's those kids... This pot of meat is those children's respect for me, it has nothing to do with me!" Nanny Li thought the meat was snatched from Jin Meiyu by those children.

It is true, after all, it is a group of children who have no parents, no mothers and nothing, how could they get such a big pot of meat?

Nanny Li glared at Dahe and the others viciously. They were frightened by the beating, and subconsciously shrank back.

Nanny Li, who was being dragged, opened her mouth to scold, but Jin Meiyu picked her up and didn't give her a chance to scold.

"Nonsense! I hired these children to cook the meat in order to save my Xiaoliu's rations for the rainy season! You snatched it when you came up and injured them. I found out that the meat was taken by you when I came to control them. Steal it!" As she said that, Jin Meiyu touched her pocket and took out two boiled eggs that had been left overnight.

"Did you see? I brought all my rewards, a total of ten boiled eggs, they cooked the meat for me, and they paid for the firewood!"

The eggs that Jin Meiyu brought out proved her concern for the employment, and Mammy Li was sweating.

Nanny Li can be fierce towards the children in the ancestral hall, but she is very guilty towards the villagers outside the ancestral hall.

After all, she is a person with a different surname, no children left in the village, and she is still a widow of a dead man. She is especially afraid of being abandoned by the Zhao family village.

"I don't know. I thought the meat belonged to them. It was them. They did it. It has nothing to do with me. You don't care what they want. They lost your meat!"

"Both the stolen goods and the old village chief, what do you think!"

Nanny Li didn't want to be kicked out, so she gave her knees and knelt down, begging for it.

"Village chief, I didn't do it on purpose. It has nothing to do with me. They framed me! I didn't even know that the meat wasn't theirs. It must be these beasts who wanted to harm me! The little beasts who control my father and mother really don't have a heart. I brought you up with shit and shit, and you actually want to harm me!"

While talking, Nanny Li became fierce again, staring at Dahe and the others, as if she was going to pounce on them and bite them.

In fact, she had already started to struggle, and the old village chief couldn't let her come over to continue to act violently, but today's matter was considered stolen. Jin Meiyu seemed unwilling to let go, and the old village chief also had a headache.

"Jin Meiyu, you saw it too, she didn't do it on purpose, it must be because those children didn't say..."

"Old village chief, do you want to help her return the meat money to me?"

"What meat money? Didn't you hunt the meat on the mountain?"

"But the meat is valuable! Old village chief, I won't take advantage of you. I will pay the price of pork. If you make up for the meat, let me forget about it. You saw it too. I gave it to you for such a big pot. But there is a pot full of raw meat, at least twenty catties, and now the pork is fifteen cents a catty, if you give me the money, let’s forget about it.”

Can the old village head pay the money?

Of course not!
Fifteen Wen a catty, twenty Jin is three hundred Wen, no one can come up with three hundred Wen for no reason.

"Meiyu, you have to forgive me and forgive me, I ate all of this meat..."

"Old patriarch, as the patriarch, you have to be fair. I only count twenty catties for such a big pot of meat, is it too much?"

much?It's really hard to say, after all, no one has ever seen what it looks like to pile up twenty catties of meat.

But Jin Meiyu has said so, so he can only treat it as less than twenty catties.

Seeing that the old village head stopped talking, Jin Meiyu turned to look at Li Nanny.

"You say it's none of your business, but the meat is there. You don't need to think about it. They can't get so much meat. When you see the meat, you snatch it and eat it. Haven't you ever wondered where the meat came from?"

Nanny Li really didn't think about it. At that time, her mind was occupied by so much meat, how could she think so much.

But Jin Meiyu's words are still reasonable.

That's right, those children don't have a penny on them, where did they get so much meat?

 I got up late today, and I was supposed to update [-] words, but I only changed [-], and I will make it up tomorrow.
